Spurs are warm favourites here, but that does need to be addressed with a note of caution in that Rafael van der Vaart and Garth Bale will both need fitness tests, while Niko Kranjcar is also an injury concern. A win though, does put Spurs into the knockout stages. They have been excellent at home so far in this competition and they do clearly have players who can threaten and score goals despite bursts of inconsistency in their Premier League matches. An attack minded approach seems inevitable from Harry Redknapp, and in fact Spurs look happiest trying to outscore their opponents.
Werder are struggling in the Bundesliga, they have lost five matches out of their last six matches and they have been conceding goals freely, so the pressure is evident. They may fear being swamped early – get through that opening patch and they may not subside. They look like they are up against it though.
Goals seem inevitable – so get on a 3-1 Spurs win, priced up at 9/1 with Betfred – just use the link to bet and claim a free £50 with Betfred.
